Marquis Of Granby in County Durham

Good to see this Sam Smith's pub has reopened and not been spoilt. Its been refurbished but not been turned into one of those soulless open planned pubs that are becoming more common. Good beer and lager. Ample free parking and beer garden,Shame dogs aren't allowed inside.

Just refurbished but not great. Outdated look and feel and only Sam Smith's ale's. Can't see this staying open for long unfortunately. The brewery have failed to move with the times

I had another love-in at the MquisG yesterday with a fellow SamSmith nut. It was a freezing cold afternoon, the fire was roaring, the boss was welcoming and chatty. The pub was fairly busy and the atmos was great (no kids, no dogs (beer garden ok), no tv, no music, and no slots). The beer was delicious with the best quality/price numbers in the area ..... if not the world.

Great pub, Sam smiths strong beer, lovely hosts

Called in here yesterday as its a Sam Smiths pub (love the beer). The service was second to none and the beer, as usual was perfect. To me, this is a proper pub and I highly recommend a visit.

It's been closed for over a year now. They have just finished a refurbishment but it's still borded up months later. Maybe they can't find anyone to run it?

Very friendly old fashioned traditional pub. Great crack

Enjoy seeing friends but cold outside

Has excellent atmosphere since new owners took over. Excellent beers, ciders and sprits

Friendly lovely pub and locals was great defo go there again x

Was great. Its closed down now.

Cheap drinks. £2.08 a pint. Good classic pub. Good beer garden out the back. Spacious inside with a few draughts on tap. Quick service. Unfortunately no contactless so bring cash. Locals are nice and dog friendly in the beer garden. Huge car park out the back.

Top pub for drinkers, no nonsense, cheap beer.
